Venere is located in one of the most beautiful and elegant parts of Positano, the small town on the Amalfi Coast known around the world for its singular beauty.
The villa is a typical Positano construction, in which the influence of Byzantine architecture merges perfectly with the skills of local master-builders. Arches, vaults and niches are embellished with majolica tiles the colour of the azure sky.
The view from the wide balconies and verandas perched high above the multicoloured sea is breathtaking, in front of the villa, I Galli, the Siren Islands; to the right, romantic Positano.
The villa is on two floors and is surrounded by gardens and terraces. The sitting room is spacious and airy, has a wide terrace and is furnished with comfortable sofas, a large dining table, wide-screen LCD television with Bose acoustics, satellite system and DVD player. The internet connection is wireless so that our guests can connect easily from anywhere in the villa or the garden. The kitchen adjacent to the sitting room is professionally equipped with everything required for fine cooking. Each of the five bedrooms are furnished in a simple Mediterranean style and has a balcony facing the sea.
A cook may be requested for the entire day or for special events.
All the bedrooms have bathrooms, roomy showers or hydro-massage tubs, safes, independent air-conditioning and mosquito netting. The owners have chosen not to place televisions in the bedrooms, the view is simply too beautiful.
The outdoor hydro-massage pool has a solarium and barbecue.
The beach below, which can be reached by steps in just 3 minutes, has a typical lido, where you can enjoy freshly-prepared food and enjoy a wonderful swim.
The centre of Positano is only 1km/0,6mile away and can be easily reached by car, bus, taxi or after a pleasant walk of approximately 10 minutes.
The entrance to the villa is shared with the owners of the property who live in an apartment on the opposite side of the grounds from the villa. Privacy is guaranteed.
The villa owners who speak English, will welcome guests to the villa, and will be happy to provide any suggestions or information.
